Chateau Talbot Saint Julien 4Ème Cru Classé

Château Talbot's 2021 Saint-Julien expresses the hallmark structure and refinement of a fourth-growth Bordeaux. A Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot blend, it opens with ripe blackcurrant and dark plum fruit, layered with cedar and graphite minerality. The palate is full-bodied and tightly wound, with high tannins that promise graceful evolution over the next 15–20 years. Secondary notes of tobacco leaf and black pepper emerge mid-palate, while tertiary leather and earth tones suggest the wine's age-worthiness. A classic Left Bank expression built for the cellar and the table.
